也谈《周易》之“童”--兼与廖名春、吴辛丑两位先生商榷

摘要

Mr.LIAO Ming -chun contends that the character tong should be interpreted as “to get rid of” or “strip off”, except the tong of Lü (the 56th hexagram in the received version of Zhouyi )should be interpreted as “slave”.Mr.WU Xin -chou maintains that LIAO’s opinions are untenable both textually and methodologically .But this paper thinks although Mr .LIAO’s opinions are short of proofs, but Mr.WU’s discussion misunderstands the image thinking characteristics in which the idea is digressed from Zhouyi.%　　廖名春先生的文章提出《周易》之“童”除了《旅》之“童”释为奴外，其他“童”字均当解为“去尽”或“脱尽”之义。吴辛丑先生则认为廖文无论在材料还是方法上都存在问题。其实，廖文或可略备一说，但嫌证据不足；而吴文的辩驳则偏离了《周易》取象比类的思维特点。
